Description

Quality-degraded point estimation method, quality-degraded point estimation equipment and program
Technical field
The present invention relates to communications network system, and relate more specifically to be used to estimate QoS deterioration point estimation method, QoS deterioration point estimation equipment and the QoS deterioration point estimation program of QoS (service quality) deterioration point.
Background technology
In order to indicate the QoS deterioration point in the communication network rapidly when the QoS deterioration, arranged that in network many surveillance equipments keep watch on all the time the QoS of their position.When the QoS deterioration takes place, estimate the interval (for example, the japanese document spy opens the 2002-271392 communique) of QoS deterioration based on the position of the surveillance equipment that QoS deterioration place takes place.This method needs many surveillance equipments to estimate exactly QoS deterioration point, thereby cost of layout is very high.In order to address this problem, proposed a kind of like this method: QoS information and routing iinformation via each communication stream of passing network are estimated QoS deterioration point (for example, the japanese document spy opens the 2006-238052 communique).
To describe the japanese document spy and open disclosed QoS deterioration point estimation method in the 2006-238052 communique.At first, create table (below, be called stream link table (flow link table)), this table will flow, flow the link (oriented link) and the QoS of process interrelated.Suppose that stream F1 to F5 is through comprising the network of the router shown in Figure 15 (or packet switch) R1 to R6.In the network shown in Figure 15, each link is named as shown in Figure 16.Packet loss rate is used for representing QoS.The packet loss rate of supposing stream F1 to F5 is respectively 3.0%, 2.5%, 3.5%, 1.0% and 0.5%.In this case, create the stream link table shown in Figure 17.Suppose that each stream per second sends 100 groupings, and packet loss rate is based on, and per packet count of losing in 2 seconds calculates.Bit among Figure 17 " 1 " the indication stream link that passes through.
Next this QoS deterioration point estimation method is carried out non-deterioration link and is removed processing.More specifically, based on the predetermined degradation threshold value and the non-deterioration threshold of current mass, each stream that the quality that is had is lower than deterioration threshold is defined as deterioration stream.Each stream that the quality that is had is higher than non-deterioration threshold is defined as non-deterioration stream.Remaining stream is defined as intermediate mass stream.Row through removing the row of intermediate mass stream, non-deterioration stream from the stream link table and non-deterioration stream the row of link of process can create the stream link table of reduction.
For example, consider packet loss rate, deterioration threshold is made as 2%, non-deterioration threshold is made as 1%.In the example shown in Figure 17, F1 to F3 is a deterioration stream, and F5 is non-deterioration stream, and F4 is an intermediate mass stream.As shown in Figure 18, the row of the row of deletion intermediate mass stream F4, non-deterioration stream F5 and the link L30 of non-deterioration stream F5 process and the row of L45 from stream link table shown in Figure 17, thus create the stream link table that reduces shown in Figure 19.
Finally, QoS deterioration point estimation method is estimated QoS deterioration point based on the stream link table of the reduction among Figure 19.For example in the method for estimation based on QoS deterioration stream, the number of the deterioration stream of link L10, L20, L50 and the L40 among process Figure 19 is respectively 1,3,1.Then at most the stream of quantity the link L20 of process be estimated as QoS deterioration point.
In smallest link counting method of estimation, consider set through the stream of link L10, L20, L50 and L40 among Figure 19.The set of the link of the minimum number of all streams among acquisition covering Figure 19 is as the deterioration link set.More specifically, in the example shown in Figure 19, the set of the stream of process link L10, L20, L50, L40 is respectively { F1}, { F1, F2, F3}, { F2}, { F3}.Flowing through, { L10, the union of the stream of L50, L40} is { F1, F2, the F3} that covers all streams to the link set that for example comprises 3 links.The link set { L10, the L20} or comprise that { L20} also can cover all stream for the link set of a link that comprise two links.In covering the link set of all streams, comprise minimum number link { L20} is estimated as the smallest link set.
Summary of the invention
The problem that solves

Embodiment
[first exemplary embodiment]
Referring now to accompanying drawing exemplary embodiment of the present is described.Fig. 1 is the diagrammatic sketch that the example of the layout of the network of first exemplary embodiment according to the present invention is shown.Network comprises router (or switch) R1 to RN.The test terminal A1 to AK that is used to measure quality is connected with QoS deterioration point estimation equipment S1.In this exemplary embodiment, regard opposite link in two routers as different link, represent the communication link between the router R1 to RN by L1 to LM.
Test terminal A1 to AK has following function: the function of the QoS information that measure the function of QoS, measures to QoS deterioration point estimation equipment S1 notice, generate test stream and send the function that this test is flowed according to the instruction from QoS deterioration point estimation equipment S1 to network.
Fig. 2 illustrates the internal placement of the QoS deterioration point estimation equipment S1 of first exemplary embodiment according to the present invention.QoS deterioration point estimation equipment S1 comprises that current mass information collection unit 1, routing information collector unit 2, adfluxion are closed and confirms that unit 3, the stream link table administrative unit 4 as stream link table generating apparatus, stream link table memory cell 5, non-deterioration link remove stream link table memory cell 7, QoS deterioration point estimation unit 8 and the display unit 9 of unit 6, reduction.The QoS deterioration point estimation equipment S1 QoS information that A1 to AK collects each stream from the test terminal is estimated QoS deterioration point based on the routing information that obtains from router R1 to RN, and estimated result is exported to display unit 9.
The operation of each composed component of QoS deterioration point estimation equipment S1 below will be described.When test terminal A1 to AK began to communicate by letter, the communication that current mass information collection unit 1 receives from them began notice.After communication began, A1 to AK received current QoS information (for example, as the address at the transmission terminal of flowing the transmission source, as address, current mass information and the flow rate of the receiving terminal that flows the destination) to current mass information collection unit 1 from the test terminal periodically.Current mass information is the information of the relevant QoS such as packet loss rate, delay and delay jitter.Flow rate is the information in the packet count of the stream per second that is used for communicating by letter.When test terminal A1 to AK finished communication, current mass information collection unit 1 received the sign off notice from them.
Routing information collector unit 2 is collected the routing information of relevant route from router (switch) R1 to RN.Can use SMTP (Simple Network Management Protocol) to wait and accomplish this information gathering.Routing information makes it possible to based on sending and the address information of receiving terminal confirms to be used for the path of the communication between them.The routing information of collecting from router more specifically comprises the configuration information that routing table and ARP (address resolution protocol) show.The routing information of collecting from switch comprises that more specifically transmitting tables of data is information with the configuration that generates tree.Notice that the network manager can provide routing information and substitute from router (switch) R1 to RN and collect routing information.
Adfluxion is closed and is confirmed that A1 to AK obtains the information that expression is connected to their router from the test terminal in unit 3.Based on this information and the routing information collected by routing information collector unit 2, adfluxion is closed and is confirmed that the terminal of test stream is confirmed to transmit with the mode of the following stated in unit 3 and test stream is transmitted at terminals that indication test terminal A1 to AK passes through to be judged.Fig. 3 illustrates the flow chart that adfluxion is closed the operation of confirming unit 3.
At first, adfluxion close confirm unit 3 through with stream, stream process link, as the address at the transmission terminal in stream transmission source with as the interrelated stream link table (the step S100 among Fig. 3) of exporting all streams between any two among relevant K the test terminal A1 to AK in address of the receiving terminal of stream destination.This stream link table will be called as complete stream link table X.Distinguish stream sending direction and stream receive direction, in K test terminal A1 to AK, can have the individual stream of K * (K-1) between any two.Therefore, complete stream link table X is to K * (K-1) individual stream generates.
Fig. 4 illustrates the example of complete stream link table X.F1 among Fig. 4 representes stream.In the example shown in Fig. 4, all cells all are blank.In the complete stream link table X of reality, row and the stream of stream bit " 1 " is set in the cell of infall of row of link of process.Can use A1 to AK to obtain and represent that information and the routing information of being collected by routing information collector unit 2 of router of their connection destination generates complete stream link table X from the test terminal.Adfluxion is closed and is confirmed that unit 3 is with K * (K-1) the individual stream definite set that will be provided for the test stream of QoS measurement of following mode from complete stream link table X.
In this exemplary embodiment, first-class set confirms that method is used as this adfluxion and closes definite method.Use first-class set to confirm method, adfluxion is closed and is confirmed that unit 3 at first calculates 1/2 value H (step S101) of link sum M.If in fact the link sum M can not be divided exactly by 2, then M/2 is rounded to integer value H through the fractional part that rounds up or remove below the decimal point of M/2.
Then, adfluxion close confirm unit 3 from complete stream link table X obtain each stream the number of links (step S102) of process.Through the bit " 1 " in each row of complete stream link table X is counted the number of links that acquisition will be passed through.Adfluxion is closed and is confirmed that unit 3 flows to line ordering (step S103) through arranging with the ascending order of the absolute value of the difference between H and the number of links that will pass through to flow to complete stream link table X.If the links of a plurality of stream similar numbers that pass through, that is, if for a plurality of streams, the absolute value of the difference between H and the number of links that will pass through is identical, and then these streams can be with any rank order.
Adfluxion is closed and is confirmed the descending of unit 3 with priority,, confirms that with the ascending order of the absolute value of the difference between the number of links of H and process predetermined number J is flowed the set (step S104) of flowing as testing among the complete stream link table X that is.The stream of the predetermined threshold that replacedly, adfluxion is closed among the complete stream link table X that will confirm after unit 3 will sort, the absolute value of the difference between H and the number of links that will pass through is equal to or less than is confirmed as and is tested the set (step S104) of flowing.
At last, transmission and receiving terminal that adfluxion is closed among definite unit 3 indication test terminal A1 to AK, determined test is flowed send test stream (step S105).
Based on QoS information of collecting and the routing information collected by routing information collector unit 2 by current mass information collection unit 1; Stream link table administrative unit 4 is carried out the stream link table that association generates relevant current stream of communicating by letter through sending terminal address, receiving terminal address, the link that will pass through, current mass (for example, packet loss rate) and flow rate.Stream link table memory cell 5 storage flow link tables.This stream link table will be called as stream link table Y.Fig. 5 is the flow chart that the operation of stream link table administrative unit 4 is shown.
Stream link table administrative unit 4 is from current mass information collection unit 1 reception QoS information (the step S200 Fig. 5) and from routing information collector unit 2 received path messages (step S201).Then, stream link table administrative unit 4 is sent terminal address, receiving terminal address, current mass and flow rate (step S202) from the QoS information acquisition.The link that each stream will pass through is based on routing information and sends (the step S203) that terminal address information is confirmed.Therefore, stream link table administrative unit 4 generates stream link table Y (step S204) and it is registered in the stream link table memory cell 5 (step S205).
Fig. 6 illustrates the example of stream link table Y.As complete stream link table X, the row of stream with flow establish set in the cell of the infall between the row of link of process.Utilize adfluxion to close the aforesaid operations of confirming unit 3, test stream institute is through test terminal A1 to AK.The QoS information that test terminal A1 to AK will test stream sends to QoS deterioration point estimation equipment S1.Therefore, stream link table Y creates about current stream of communicating by letter (comprising test stream).
Non-deterioration link is removed unit 6 and is carried out non-deterioration link removal processing periodically to stream link table Y, thereby generates the stream link table Z of reduction.The stream link table Z of the stream link table memory cell 7 storage reductions of reduction.Fig. 7 illustrates the flow chart that non-deterioration link is removed the operation of unit 6.
Non-deterioration link is removed unit 6 and is read stream link table Y and verify the deterioration stream (the step S300 Fig. 7) that whether exists the quality that has to be lower than the predetermined degradation threshold value from stream link table memory cell 5 periodically.If there is deterioration stream, then non-deterioration link remove unit 6 from stream link table Y delete non-deterioration stream row (except deterioration stream and non-deterioration stream the row of link of process) and transmission terminal address, receiving terminal address, current mass and flow rate.Therefore, non-deterioration link is removed unit 6 and is generated the stream link table Z (step S301) of reduction and it is registered in the stream link table memory cell 7 of reduction (step S302).Fig. 8 illustrates the example of the stream link table Z of reduction.
Fig. 9 is the flow chart that the operation of QoS deterioration point estimation unit 8 is shown.The stream link table Z (step S400) of reduction is read in QoS deterioration point estimation unit 8 from the stream link table memory cell 7 of reduction; Use QoS deterioration flow accounting method of estimation or smallest link counting method of estimation to estimate QoS deterioration point (step S401), and on display unit 9, show the QoS deterioration point (step S402) that estimates.
As said with reference to Figure 19, in the link that QoS deterioration flow accounting method of estimation is estimated to be registered among the stream link table Z of reduction, the deterioration stream of maximum number the link of process as QoS deterioration point.On the other hand, smallest link counting method of estimation is estimated among the stream link table Z of reduction in that registered and the link set (combination of link) that cover all deteriorations streams, the smallest link set of link that comprises minimum number is as QoS deterioration point.
Therefore, QoS deterioration point estimation equipment S1 makes display unit 9 show the link of being estimated as QoS deterioration point.
Next the effect of this exemplary embodiment will be described.Open in the 2006-238052 communique in the disclosed QoS deterioration point estimation method the japanese document spy; If among the stream link table Y in the row of link set vertical Bit String comprise one or more links with same bits string; Then all these links all are regarded as the candidate of QoS deterioration point, no matter and which link has actual QoS deterioration.Suppose the stream link table Y shown in Figure 10.In stream link table Y, link L2 has identical Bit String with L4.Therefore, even have only one the QoS deterioration is arranged in them, also generate the stream link table Z of the reduction shown in Figure 11.In this case, QoS deterioration point estimation unit 8 uses the method for estimation of the number that flows based on the QoS deterioration or smallest link counting method of estimation that link L2 and L4 both are confirmed as QoS deterioration point.As a result, do not have a link of QoS deterioration to be confirmed as QoS deterioration point by error in the link, cause lower accuracy of estimation.
Yet the adfluxion of this exemplary embodiment is closed the set of confirming that unit 3 selects test to flow, is minimised as the stream of minimal amount with the quantity of links that will have the same bits string.First-class set in this exemplary embodiment confirms in the method, and the bit number that in the corresponding line of complete stream link table X, is provided with (number of links that will pass through) is about 1/2 stream of link sum and is preferentially confirmed as test stream.
Why use first-class set to confirm the reasons are as follows of method.Focus onto on two row (stream) of complete stream link table X.If every row at random comprises bit " 1 ", comprise that then the number of the row of 1/2 bit " 1 " can be maximized.In addition, bit of interested these two row mean value of being positioned at the probability of diverse location is maximized.Take place from following visible this phenomenon.If P is the probability that every row of complete stream link table X have bit " 1 ".When two row when comprising the bit " 1 " of equal number, the different probability of bit is p * (p-1).When p=1/2, this probability is maximized.
